Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This homes old 6 mil vapor barrier was ripped and covered in thick layers of mineral deposits. Without realizing how long it had passed since they had last checked their crawl space, they were wanting a long term solution with an encapsulation. For this they called up John's Waterproofing. After learning about the products we use and the fifty years of experience we have, they were ready to get their project rolling!

This home had sunk over the years, and no longer met local codes. To fix this we dug out the crawlspace. An average of 8 inches, and encased the space with CleanSpace to keep this home dry and healthy. 

The crawlspace of this home had evidence of critters living there, and the homeowners were looking to keep them out. As our design specialists discussed options we learned that the home had oddly high energy bills as well. To combat both the vermin and energy costs we did a full encapsulation with our crawlspace-specific insulation. This home will now be dry and healthy. 

This concrete slab crawl space was experiencing some water intrusion. The homeowner had previously installed a 6 mil vapor barrier to help keep water from being able to seep through, but it wasn't capable of keeping the water out during the rainy seasons. Tired of dealing with this, the homeowner decided to call John's Waterproofing and see if there were other options to replace their old vapor barrier. We recommended that the crawl space gets a full encapsulation to seal the home off from the earth and control the water intrusion. With every encapsulation, a CleanSpace vapor is installed along the base, up the foundation walls, and between the footing and wooden posts to isolate and protect against water damage. The CleanSpace vapor barrier is a 20 mil thick compared to the traditional 6 mil black liner. This makes it more durable against rips and tears, especially being backed by a 25 year warranty. The reason CleanSpace is so high quality is because it is made with woven fibers that help prevent water from being able to seep through and sealed with 4 inch thick waterproof tape. Overall the full encapsulation process is designed to keep the crawl space dry and healthy, with added benefits from the CleanSpace vapor barrier.

An unclean crawlspace brings that nasty air up into the livable spaces. With over fifty percent of the air in your home being brought from underneath, we provide a way to have this air be healthy and clean.
